The first thousand and seventy-six chapters promise and the gift of the Confucian saint
While he was meditating on the wall of Linze City, Wu Fan hurried over, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, the two distinguished guests whom you have placed in Mingde Palace have something important to report to you."
A distinguished guest from Myeongde Palace?
Lin Ze thought for a moment before realizing that Wu Fan was talking about the demon envoy, but would the demon envoy have anything important to report?
Could it be that they have already contacted the Demon Saint who is now the leader of the Demon Clan, and their previous proposal has come to fruition?
Thinking of this, Lin Ze asked: "Did those two distinguished guests mention the specific matter?"
Wu Fan bowed and replied: "We have asked about it, but they said it is a big matter and it is not appropriate for us to know about it. As long as we report it to Your Majesty, His Majesty will naturally know what it is."
Lin Ze responded calmly: "I understand, you go and reply to them, I will wait for them in Yongle Hall."
Wu Fan bowed and responded: "No, Wei Chen will do it right away."
Lin Ze waved his hand, took off in the wind, and landed in Yongle Hall.
After a while, Hu Li and Qing Qiu Yue came hand in hand, bowed and saluted: "Little demon pays homage to His Majesty the Human Emperor."
Lin Ze smiled: "No need to be polite. I heard that you have something important to tell me. I don't know what it is?"
Hu Li nodded and replied: "Reporting to His Majesty the Human Emperor, it is what His Majesty the Human Emperor mentioned yesterday about offering sacrifices to the sacred tree. The little demon truthfully conveyed what His Majesty the Human Emperor said back to the clan. The elders in the clan have
reply."
"The elders are willing to follow the request of His Majesty the Human Emperor and arrange for the Demon Saint to lead a team to worship the Jianmu Sacred Tree on the altar built by the human craftsmen when the Jianmu Sacred Tree matures."
Lin Ze was slightly surprised: "The message was sent so quickly this time? I thought it would take ten days and a half for there to be news."
Huli replied with a respectful expression: "His Majesty the Emperor Hongfu, this message transmission went very smoothly. The elders have been paying attention to this matter, so they responded quickly."
Lin Ze smiled and said: "This is a good thing, but I don't know when the noble elders will send the altar drawings?"
As Lin Ze expected, the demon tribe entered the game easily.
No, no, to be precise, the demon clan wanted to join the game, and Lin Ze finally fulfilled their wish.
Hu Li bowed and replied: "The altar drawings are too complicated and cannot be accurately transmitted through communication methods. The elders of the clan will have to arrange for a smart and capable demon to send them over. I am afraid it will take one to three months."
Lin Ze waved his hand and said: "This matter is not urgent. It is too early for the Jianmu Sacred Tree to enter the mature stage. As long as it is delivered before then, it will be fine."
"By the way, the two messenger noble elders, since we have arranged for the big demon to send the blueprints this time, why not let him bring the remaining spirits of heaven and earth over, so as not to repeat things and hinder the growth of the Jianmu Sacred Tree
.”
Hu Li was stunned when he heard the words. He glanced at Qingqiu Yue without leaving any trace, and bowed and replied: "The little demon will definitely convey the words of His Majesty the Human Emperor to the elders of the clan. As for what the elders of the clan will do, the little demon will
Can not guarantee."
Lin Ze waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, just pass the message, you don't have to worry about the rest."
"By the way, let me tell the noble elders that trust is the basis of cooperation. The more sincerity, the better."
Huli smiled bitterly, wondering how he didn't know what the human emperor was thinking, but from the perspective of the demon clan, it was of course impossible for him to voluntarily give up the bargaining chip.
The elders in the clan, or the ancestor, may send another batch of the essence of heaven and earth to show their sincerity, but it is impossible to send them all.
Huli was even struggling with whether he should report this passage or not.
At this moment, Lin Ze's erratic words came: "The two envoys must not forget to send a message for me. When I see the noble elders later, if the noble elders evade and say that they have never heard of this matter, the two of them may bear the burden of me and the noble elders at the same time.
Double rage."
Hu Li suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and was horrified in his heart. The Human Emperor could actually see through his thoughts. Such a level of cultivation was terrifying.
From this point of view, regardless of whether the elders of the clan would refuse, these words must be passed on. If the Human Emperor makes an attack because of this, and is punished by the ancestor, or worse, ruins the demon clan's major affairs, then he will die.
However, Lin Ze could not guess what Hu Li was thinking. He said this just to prevent the demon clan from deliberately delaying the delivery of the essence of heaven and earth under the pretext that they had not received the news.
Although it is unlikely that the demon clan deliberately delayed in order to enter the game, Lin Ze has always been cautious and will never make mistakes.
As for what Hu Li was thinking, Lin Ze wouldn't care too much even if he knew.
Hu Li respectfully replied: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, the little demon will never forget."
Lin Ze smiled and said: "If there is nothing else, you two can go back for now."
Huli Qingqiuyue said in unison: "Little demon, please retire."
…
Half a month later, while Lin Ze was "fertilizing" the Jianmu Sacred Tree, two figures came riding on the long river of Haoran's righteousness and landed a hundred feet away from Lin Ze.
The two of them bowed and said in salute: "Confucian Zhong You and Bu Shang pay homage to the saint Lin Ze."
Lin Ze ignored the two of them. After the "fertilization" was completed, he sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and waited for heaven's reward.
After a while, Lin Ze, who had converted all the rewards from heaven into cultivation, opened his eyes and asked: "Two sages from Confucianism came all the way to see me. Why?"
Zhongyou the fortune teller looked at each other, and finally the fortune teller took a step forward and replied: "Back to Lin Sheng, the two of us have brought a treasure that Lin Sheng may use on the orders of my master Confucian Saint."
Lin Ze glanced at him and asked casually: "Oh, I wonder what kind of treasure it is?"
The fortune teller took out an object that looked like a book from his arms, held it in front of his forehead with both hands, lowered his head and brought it to Lin Ze, and said in a respectful tone: "Please take a look at it, Lin Sheng."
With a thought in his mind, Lin Ze took down this strange "book" from the air and slowly opened it.
I saw that the originally ordinary-looking book burst out with dazzling white light.
Everyone present, including Lin Ze, clearly felt that the white light contained various emotions, such as sincerity, lawfulness, friendship, and kindness.
In other words, the book sent by Confucianists is full of positive energy.
Similar to this kind of positive energy, from another perspective, it is also called the power of faith.
Lin Ze closed the book casually, and the white light and all kinds of positive energy displayed disappeared without a trace in an instant.
What surprised Lin Ze was that Zhong Yu and Bu Shang couldn't help but show a look of loss.
This effect of bewitching people's hearts is no less impressive than some Taoist techniques used by Taoism to confuse people's minds, as well as certain magical powers used by Buddhism to transform believers.
Lin Ze asked calmly: "Did the Confucian sage leave any words for you to convey?"
The fortune-teller was startled when he heard this, and instantly returned to normal. He bowed and said, "Go back to Lin Sheng. My master said that since you have seen the treasure, you will naturally understand his intention. If you ask about this matter, I will tell you."
"This book is called the Book of Ten Thousand People. It is a treasure that was refined by my teacher to teach all the people. It contains the most sincere emotions and beliefs of all people in the world."
"A few days ago, my master specially took out the Book of All Nations and refined it over and over again. Its preciousness is even more precious than a few Confucian saints' ritual vessels."
"My master specifically explained that the faith contained in the Book of All Nations is countless times better than the power of faith composed of selfish, greedy and other mottled emotions."
The implication is that this Book of Ten Thousand People can replace the people who come to worship the Jianmu sacred tree every day to pray for blessings, providing the purest and highest level of faith power.
After saying this, Lin Ze smiled slightly and replied without hesitation: "Thank you Confucian Sage for my kindness, and I will accept this treasure."
The fortune teller's face lit up with joy when he heard this, and he pretended to be reserved and bowed and replied: "I will definitely bring Lin Sheng's words with you. Once this matter is over, I will say goodbye."
Lin Ze said calmly: "Let's go slowly without seeing you off."
Bu Shang and Zhong You bowed their hands again and left on the river of Haoran's righteousness.
After the two figures completely disappeared from sight, Lin Ze waved his hand to disperse the remaining auras of the two people, and casually threw the so-called Book of All Peoples into his own little world.
After thinking about it for a while, he felt it was inappropriate, so Lin Ze took the Book of All People out of the small world and threw it into a corner of the palace.
If nothing else happens, this Book of All Nations will be covered with a layer of dust in the near future.
It was a gift from the Confucian sage, not to mention whether he had tampered with it. Even if he hadn't, Lin Ze wouldn't have the slightest intention to use it.
If Lin Ze uses it, who knows whether the reward given by Heaven will be traced back to its source and eventually fall on the Confucian sage?
As far as Lin Ze knew, the luck of the people who came to pray every day but who worshiped devoutly would be improved by a few points.
It can be inferred from this that it is very possible to trace the source.
Do you want Lin Ze to become a Tiandao reward porter?
